How many miles should I change my tires? Is there a specific mileage threshold that indicates when it’s time to replace them? Or do factors such as driving conditions, tire quality, and the climate in which I operate my vehicle play a more significant role in determining tire longevity? Should I be vigilant about checking tread depth regularly, or is it sufficient to adhere to general recommendations? Could the type of tires I have—whether all-season, performance, or winter tires—affect how many miles I can expect before needing to purchase new ones? Additionally, is it true that tire maintenance practices, including rotation and inflation, can extend the lifespan of my tires, thereby altering the mileage at which I should consider replacement? Ultimately, how does one ascertain the optimal moment to invest in new tires, ensuring both safety and performance without undue expense?
